First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Grant Thornton International.
Graduate Assistant
For this case study, you'll be given a mini case study. A partner at Grant Thornton needs to meet with a potential new client, Westings Gym, tomorrow to discuss potential support for their business. Some initial research on Westings Gym and its competitors has been done, and a brief initial conversation with the client has also occurred. Your task is to review the provided information and write an email to help the partner prepare for the upcoming meeting. The partner specifically requested insights on key priorities, how Grant Thornton can help with growth, challenges the gym faces and how to address them, ensuring information accuracy for conclusions, and any further information needed for the meeting.
- Regarding Westings Gym's main goals, what are they and how can Grant Thornton support their expansion efforts?
- What are the difficulties Westings Gym is experiencing and what would be your approach to resolving them?
- What methods would you use to guarantee that the data you're using is precise enough to form valid judgments?
Graduate Program
I applied online with my resume and some basic questions, then did some online tests that were pretty standard. After that, there was an online interview with 5 questions. Most of them were behavioural, asking about my personality and past experiences, but one was about recent financial news.
- Can you discuss a recent economic or financial news item?
Graduate Student
I applied online and then had to do some psychometric testing. After that, I got a link for a video interview. I passed that, and then they sent me a link to a virtual assessment centre on Zoom. The last step was a final interview with a panel where they asked me the usual stuff like 'tell me about yourself', 'why accounting', and for a 'teamwork example'. It was a pretty average process overall.
- Can you tell me about yourself?
- What motivated you to pursue accounting?
- Could you share an instance where you worked effectively in a team?
